Lizzo hit back at fans who tried to once again call out an apparent feud between the singer and her music rival Taylor Swift
Lizzo has addressed the rumours of her feud with Taylor Swift. And it’s clear she feels it’s About Damn Time that it was cleared up once and for all.
The duo were said to have been involved in a showbiz spat three years ago. But for Lizzo, it’s time to move away from the claims as she threw down the gauntlet to those still talking about the apparent situation.
She once again corrected the notion that she likes to talk about others in the industry, including the Shake It Off star. And she has reiterated her desire not to compete with other musicians.

Her clap back comes after a user on X (formerly Twitter) attempted to compared the pair’s streaming numbers. They wrote on the social media platform: “The Life Of A Showgirl + MY FACE HURTS FROM SMILING — 4.005M. ICEMAN + MAID OF HONOUR + HABIBTI — 683k.”
As the singer asked to user for clarity on what she was trying to share, a user said Lizzo’s trash talk had caught up with her. They indicated that it caused her streaming figures to be a lot lower than her fellow musician.
She wasn’t impressed by the response and doubled down that she has never talked bad of Taylor at any time. Lizzo added: “Also, while we’re on the subject, I’ve never talked s**t about any artist.
“Just because I mention an artist by name does not mean I’m talking s**t. Grow tf up pls.”
Lizzo recently revealed she is soon to release new music. It comes amid a yearslong legal battle which left her placing any projects on hold.
Now though, she is just weeks away from a new album, which is set for release on June 5. She is hoping the album empowers women with the use of a single word.
She recently said: “The album is called ‘B***h. After the song … I always have a title track.”
The album’s title track samples Meredith Brooks’ feminist anthem of the same name. And there is also a spot for Missy Elliott’s song, titled She’s a B***h.”
The star went on to tell CBS Mornings co-host Gayle King: “I feel like what both of those women did was they pushed that word forward in a way that empowered it, instead of taking the power away. Like that’s a word that used to get hurled at women. It’s my favourite word.”
